A slender, stylized roman with delicate, flared strokes and sharp, blade-like terminals that create a distinctly drawn feel. Serifs are often triangular and pointed, with occasional asymmetric wedges and subtle curvature in the main stems. Round letters show slightly irregular stress and tapered joins, while diagonals (notably in K, V, W, X, and Y) feel inked with swift, cutting strokes. The lowercase mixes narrow, upright forms with expressive details such as a single-storey a, a compact e with a curved cross-stroke, and a t that reads more like a hooked, calligraphic stroke than a conventional crossbar.
This font is best suited to display settings where its pointed serifs and calligraphic tapering can be appreciated—such as book covers, editorial headlines, posters, and themed branding. It can also add character to packaging or short pull quotes, especially when a whimsical or slightly dark-fantasy mood is desired.
The overall tone is theatrical and slightly gothic without becoming heavy, balancing refinement with a playful edge. Its sharp serifs and tapered strokes evoke handmade lettering—expressive, decorative, and a touch mischievous—suited to evocative titles rather than neutral reading.
The design appears intended to translate hand-drawn, calligraphic energy into a readable serif framework, prioritizing personality and atmosphere over strict regularity. Its narrow proportions and sharp terminals aim to create a distinctive silhouette for titling and expressive wordmarks.
Spacing appears airy and the rhythm is more display-oriented than text-oriented, with noticeable personality shifts between glyphs that reinforce the hand-rendered character. Numerals carry the same pointed, tapered logic, with distinctive curls and wedges that make them feel ornamental and period-tinged.
